Whenever I see or hear the words wood shed , I think of the movie Cold Comfort Farm. Have you seen it? It’s funny and quirky….a line in the movie that is said over and over by the grandmother is “I saw something nasty in the wood shed!” Don’t know why that one stuck with me but it did.

I adore these! I’ve been trying to take more pictures for the purpose of using them in collage. I love using my own photos, but my pics are usually rather traditional shots of family or something I want to remember. Sometimes I find myself wishing I had a particular type of image for collage, so I’m getting better at noticing the things in my environment that would make good pictures for collage fodder. I was in Boston yesterday and kept stopping to snap pictures of sewer covers and grates 🙂 Your collages are so beautiful and inspiring!

These are great and while I don’t instagram, I do have about a million photos that could/should become the backbone of many a collage. Once again, you’ve inspired me. Now, how do I work my photos into a spiral ? I’ll figure something out, just you watch! 🙂

"Creativity does not come
with a set of instructions.
There is no fragile,
handle with care,
this end up, contents may
shift in transit.
Yet we are fragile,
a bag of bones
inside a permeable membrane
with a mass of gray matter
held inside a
thin, bony shell.
And we definitely do
shift in transit.
So what are we waiting for?"
